“She passed her audition and got the job. Unfortunately, she was not vetted by the casting company. Had the campaign known of her full filmography, we obviously would not have let her appear in the ad.

“The campaign is taking the ad down and will replace it with a different commercial.”

Lindsay, who says she is a Cruz supporter, responded on Twitter, saying she was “extremely disappointed” and stressing that “#myvotecounts.”

“I think this is politics as usual. It was done in a snap moment. Someone has got to make a decision and sometimes it’s just better to take it down,” she later told CNN.

Although she had not known which Republican the ad was for when she auditioned, the self-described conservative said she “knew that it was something I could get behind and support.”

The actress, who said Cruz was still in the running for her vote despite pulling the ad, told several U.S. media outlets that she had never been featured in hard-core pornography but has appeared in a number of mainstream films.

“Even though I’m a soft-core actress, I’m voting conservative and Republican . . . I couldn’t do a Hillary Clinton commercial for all the money in the world,” she told The Washington Post.
